ONE of the steps our State Legisla-
ture should take is to make all road
taxes payable in to the county funds,
instead of obliging road "verseers to
collect it or have work done to pay
the same. Considerable time and an
noyance is experienced by overseers in
the present way and if the tax was
paid into the county treasurery. Ap-
preparations could be made by com
missioners for road work on different
districts where it is needed and over
seers could keep our county roads in
better shape.

AT the regular meeting of tho Board
of County Commissioners, reported in
the News-Democrat, we notice a
change was made in the commissioners
districts and the county is now divided
in good shape, to represent the differ
ent industries in the county. The
Northern half, which is devoted to
mining, will be one district, the South
east quarter will form another district,
which includes Parlin, Doylville, To-
michi, White Pine, Ohio City, and
Pitkin, and the Southwest quarter
forming the other district, which in
cludes Gunnlson City and the princi pal

THE Elk Mountain Pilot takes the
same stand in the question Of tax
ing mining property as the CURRENT,
and should tax become necessary we
believe that all patented mines will
bear the burden, instead Of the pro-
ducers having to pay on the net out
put. There would seem to be more
reason in taxing property in this way.
Yet We say the first step to be taken
by our Legislature is TO economic
and to not impose a tax if it can Be
avoided.

TUESDAY, June 81.
The local market still remains quiet, less
stock having changed hands the past week
in this vicinity than during the previous
week. This is caused by the difference in
prices offered by dealers and those asked
by growers. This has reference to fine
woods alene. Some few clips have been
sold as high AZ 33c, while Others brought
35c, and this fact has good deal to do
with the holding back Of farmers. Dealers
and manufacturers seem very willing to
pay from 80 to 32c, but growers hold their
stock firmly at from 33i to 35c, and refuse
to let it go at q less figure. For unwashed
the price is one-thiTd OFF from these figures.
Local dealers claim that these prices are
too stiff in comparison with Eastern prices
to warrant them in purchasing. There is
not much movement in fine woods East, rs
the markets are awaiting results
Medium and coarse grades are still lively
and there is quite large demand for them.
Medium unwashed brings y to 29c; medi-
um lleeces washed 33l to 36c; medium tub
washed IS to 3Sc; black bury and fleece
grown from 10 Zoe less
Holders of woods in the Eastern mar
ketS generally ire confident, and the only
drawback in the situation is the difficulty
which manufacturers experience in obtain
ing better prices for goods. Prices in

Those Rebel Flags.
PHILIPPI, June IS, 1851.

PHILIPPI, June IS, 1857.
10 he Editor Of ne Register:
The same men who never smelt powder
at the front or the rear, are struck with
horror at the mere mention of returning
Rebel flags. Ex-Rebels do not want
them returned, but want them to stay
where they are as their preservation shows
the yalor Of the men who fought under
them. Neither do ex-Rebels want to see
the Union flags captured by them retura-
ed. but would like to see the Union and
Confederate flags classified with state
ment of the time OF place of their capture.
When this Is done it will be seen that the
Confederate army captured almost If
not quite as many Union flags from tue
Union army as the Union army captured
from the Confederates. So let them all be
kept at the Capitol Of the Nation, where
they can be seen by Union and ex-Con-
fsderate soldiers, and their children, as an
evidence of the fearful strife which
eemented the bonds of the American
Union for all time to come. Northern
veterans who tested Southern steel do not
shake the bloody shirt, as that is only
done by towards and the stay at home
brigade. Yours,
Ex-REBEL.

WELIsBURG, W. VA, June 22.-The
second day of the Brooke County Institute
opened with an enrolment Of A After
roll call and recitation of memory gems by
all present, Prot. Mitchell continued the
drill in percentage
Prof. Armstrong introduced Language
Lessons and Science of Grammar" He
spoke of the difficulties of making the latter
an agreeable study for children and affirm
ed that the study must be preceded by
EASY lessons in the use OF language. he
used interesting board exercises to Illus
trate the use Of many puzzling irregular
verbs that are most often misused.
The next topic, Geography" was
opened by Miss Wilson. Points discussed:
How long should one geography be contln-
ned? Use of text books, correct methods OF
teaching areas, and the use of the globe IN
teaching form and relative size OF portions
of the earth. A very interesting feature OF
the discussion was a description OF Super
intendent Russelrs method OF teaching
geography, by one Of his pupils, Miss
Batham. The subject of map drawing
was discussed by Mrs. Mitchell. The sub
ject of oral spelling was opened, followed
by q drill in elementary sounds.
Adjourned till 1870. The subject Of
smelling continued. Discussed - What
use shall be made of the Spelling Book?'
Rules for spelling and their application,
word analysis, use of synonyms and homo
nyms in spelling. Science OF teaching was
discussed by Prof. Mitchell. His talk was
upon the powers of the mind in their
natural order, and the succession of studies
that develop these powers. Those branches
that require most reason and Judgment
should come after those that exercise per
ception. Books recommended to teachers:
Sully's and Porter's Psychology, Balm and
PAYNE on the Science of Education, Page
on School Government and Others.
The subject of U. S. History was opened
by Prof. Armstrong. He spoke Of the meth
DDS of presenting this subject to pupils; rec.
commended the topical plan and the use OF
different text books on the same subjects,
making the subject matter as interesting as
a story. The connection between events IS
with q purpose, everything has cause and
effect. The study of history is IN excellent
exercise for developing the memory, imagi-
nation and Judgment, as well as improving
the power of expression. Its effect upon
the character is to cultivate morality by
the admiration of the good and true and
detestation of the wicked and cruel. The
topical method was exemplified by an out
line of Grants administration.
The last exercise of the day was query
box, containing questions pertaining to
teaching
